Mir. Geo. A. Stone came down from Riverside on Thursday and will return in day or two. He is placing the mill of Gabriel, Elder and others in good working condition and will have it nearly ready to start up in week or ten days, although it will not begin until about the first of October when large quantity of ore will be on hand. A good road has been constructed from the mines to the mill and large loads of ore can be easily hauled over it. The mines are in good working shape with enough ore in sight that can be actually quarried out, to keep three or four mills of that capacity-6ve stamp running indefinitely. MT. Stone believes they have excellent prop critics and he looks for good results from the little mill when it gets fairly working.

Bitten by a Ratt,esnake.

A fire man on the construction train, whose name was not learned, was bitten on the thumb by rattlesnake at wash out near Gila Bend on Wednesday. The accident happened through his own care- lessness. He discovered the snake near the washout and managed to cover it with shovel and held it while the en- gineer tried to get string around its neck. The fireman finally stopped and grabbed the snake near the head and picked it up. Unfortunately he gave it room enough to turn its head and 1t bit him offthe thumb
 He was taken to Gila Bend and through the good attention he received there he will probably get along all right, although his arm is badly swollen and he was un, able to sit up on Thursday.

The bronze turkey now regarded with such favor by poultry raisers all over the civilized world, is native of Arizona. In 1864 an officer of the United States army was crossing Arizona and his party trapped number of wild bronze tur- keys in the Mogollon Mountains where they were quite plentiful. He took a number with him to San Francisco and from that point theii introdution into the eastern states was easily made There nre many grand specimens of this breed of fowl still to be found in the Mogollons and several other ranges of mountains in this Territory. The writer has discussed some of them that were killed ia the Santa Catalinas and more delicious ''piece de resistance" never graeed the table of an epicure.

Baker, the barber whom he bought out few weeks ago, of revolver, a check and some money. The revolver he pawned and the money and check were gambled away at Silver King, Constable Boscha was given warrant for Emerson's arrest on suspicion, and he worked up the case to certainty and finally apprehended Emerson en route to Salt River Valley through the mountains where no trail exists Emerson acknowledges having taken the articles, but says he found them on the floor and did not take them from Bakers person. He went to Pinal about two months ago. and although he was total stranger he succeeded in get ting his note of $20O endorsed by two responsible men, witt, the proceeds of which he purchased Baker's barber shop. His mania for gambling, however, led him to commit the crime for which he is ow held, and when tickle fortune swept away the fruits of his crooked acts, he sought safety in flight. Had he won, he says he would have replaced every cent he had taken.

Mir. Al. Richeson returned from Tue son on Wednesday night. He came over the railroad on the construction train the first train over the road since the washout. It took six hours to run from Tucson to Casa Grande, owing to the terrible condition of the track. Along some portions of the route the water is still level with the rails aud the country is covered more than foot deep with broad sheet of water. It will take many weeks to fully repair the damages to the road, although through trains may run within week or ten days.

Horace Greeley once wrote a book
entitled "What I Know About Farm
ing" but few ever believed that he
knew much about it. But that is not
all that he did in the agricultural line.
Some years before his death he paid
$4,000 for wild Virginia lands which
everybody but Greeley believed to be
worthless. Now the Greeley sisters
have been offered $40, 900 for the lands,
and they are still going up. Some
time ago Cornelius Vanderbilt paid an
old debt to Mr.. Greeley's daughters.
1t was for borrowed money, and long
before Greeley died he had given up
hopes of ever getting dollar of it
back. But the principal and interest
was paid up in full, amounting to a
very handsome sum. So it seems
that some of Greeleys speculations,
which he thought almost worthless,
are turning out we'll, while, on the
other hand, his stock in the Tribune,
which he believed would prove safe
and profitable investment, has not
paid cent of dividend for over eight
wears.

the saloons on Sunday and to other

the guise of the Personal Liberty
League, and we exhort all good citi-
zens and voters of all States and

to use every legitimate means to de-
feat all candidates for Office pledged
or known to favor Sunday liquor sell
ling, and to support such candidates
only as will faithfully and uncompro-
misingly oppose all Sabbath desecra-
ton"
